FMS581 Second Helpings!

 Don't say I didn't warn you about making more than one card while I have all the mess supplies out on my desk!  Second helpings for Freshly Made Sketches #581 coming up!

Here are those stamped Eucalyptus leaves I talked about...


This gorgeous green from Stampin' Up tried to look black - I fixed that...


I should have saved this next card - you just have to know the Color Hues colors will be peach and green next week, right? lol


There's something very old-time-y about this gorgeous set from The Stamp Market

But it's just too pretty not to share!

Dang I can't wait till my order gets here! Love what you've done on both of these cards, Michele! That dark green is perfect with the eucalyptus!

Not just one but two cards to inspire!! You are truly talented my friend x

Marcia Hill said...

These are both SO BEAUTIFUL Michele! Their simplicity is what takes them to the top level and you do it so well! Your Evening Evergreen card...well there just are no words that I haven't already used on all your cards lately! It's a STUNNER my friend! And so is your white on white on white with the pop of peach and green (sorry, wrong guess for CH!) from your florals! Lovely, lovely cards!! Hugs. :0)

So very beautiful, Michele! Thank you for sharing these delights!

Vicki Dutcher said...

I am loving the monotone of these cards. I so will be casing the idea 😀

Bonnie said...

I'm with you about making multiple cards from the same set. That's how I justify what I spend on those supplies! Your eucalyptus is so pretty and I love the embossing with the leaves and the flowers! Great layouts too!

Jane Harrah said...

How very lovely!! Both cards are perfect.

Julie B said...

Two fab cards again, you are so talented Michele. Love the moodiness of the first and the white background embossing to the second and no you are fine to share early!;)

Tracey McNeely said...

Two absolutely gorgeous cards my friend! That green cardstock is amazing. I love seeing what you do with a design, it always inspires me!

HilaryJane said...

I just love the dark green one, it looks so classy and amazing. That doesn't mean there is anything wrong with the peach and green one though. Love the 2 rounded corners detail xx

The first card is stunning in its simplicity, Michele. I love all the texture and dimension on the second one.

Karren said...

Wow, these are stunning, Michele! That green eucalyptus card is so very striking! Thanks so much for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches.

Cécile RIBON said...

Wow! This black version is absolutely amazing! I'm in love! Thanks so much for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches this week.

I love how you play with your stuff, Michele! Some days are like that. I like to play with a set thoroughly before I put it away, but it might not be all in one day. You're much speedier than I am! The creativity was flowing freely and beautifully when you made these cards! I do love the eucalyptus. It works great with the sketch and with your flowers!

TK said...

These are really gorgeous -- each element speaks well to the whole card, and simple elements are showcased beautifully

The embossed Eucalyptus leaves are lovely! They look so good whether the card base is dark or bright. I love the shade of the dark green cs.
Love how you used the stamped & die-cut Eucalyptus leaves for each card.
